Compatible with the Crucial RAM Amazon recommends? I got this netbook a few days ago and my RAM that I ordered along with it (that Amazon recommends) doesn't seem to fit snugly in the RAM slot. It doesn't seem to go in all the way. Other people have said it works fine in the Acer 1410. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Compatible with the Crucial RAM Amazon recommends?

Nevermind, I figured it out. I just didn't snap it in hard enough. Thanks anyway.

Did your laptop recognize the added memory immediately or some tricks are needed?

Are you 100% sure you're putting it in "in the right direction"? It only goes in 1 way.

According to Compaq, this laptop can have the RAM upgraded to 8GB. I have been searching to see how to do it. I can only find one slot under the machine and I imagine the other one is under the keyboard. If you have any luck finding the 2nd RAM slot, please post it's location.Thanks

Appreciate your acknowledgement. Since you are looking for a large memory, it would indicate you are an experience PC user. Given this assumption, I would not recommend Acer. They have very limited support: 1. Do not support any customer upgrade - voids warranty. 2. Very limited support policy. 3. No in home service or I can't find any authorized service center in California. 4. After a few days, with an U.S.B. 3.0 drive attached, the system would not boot. Acer tech support declined to offer any help. Eagle3x8.

In searching the ACER site, adding RAM is not supported. Hence, voiding warrantee if I opened the case. Agree with the others that 1 or 2 Gb is not a big difference. I only encountered sluggishness if doing a lot of surfing. E-mail, no problem. Games, no problem. So I just use this unit for on the road e-mail and light shopping. Heavy shopping will encounter some slow down. I purchased Norton 360 and periodically clean out the temporary files and cookies, etc. That did a lot to improve speed.

I wrote the following in my review of the 1000HE netbook. Did you follow all these steps? It was a breeze to replace the installed 1GB with 2GB -- remove 2 screws, take off cover, push out the two retaining clips on either side of the 1GB module, take out the 1GB module, put in the 2GB module, press down, replace cover and screws, done! Oh, one more thing. As the computer starts to boot up (and I mean right when it starts to power up) hold down the F2 key to bring up the BIOS. Verify that it sees 2GB of RAM. Then hit F10 to save the configuration. Once booted up, check by right-clicking My Computer, Properties.

I just bought the ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005PEB-RRE (the brownish red one) and decided to upgrade the ram to 2GB. Order the Crucial CT25664AC800 based on recommendations by other ASUS owners on Amazon. It works!!! The whole process takes less than 10 minutes. I actually spend most of the time figuring how to open the cover. The BIOS setting even auto-detect. I am very happy with both products.

Hey Brad, I recently upgraded my RAM using this stick G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Laptop Memory (F3-1600C9S-8GRSL) ... Worked perfect for me. Haven't experienced any compatibility issues!

This ram did NOT work with my brand new netbook. It continually skipped when trying to view video that played fine with the original 1GB the netbook came with. I also had the problem Roy did where it wouldn't shut down completely. Tired of all of the hang-ups and not properly shutting down I reinstalled the original 1GB and it is working (and turning off) perfectly. I'm still searching for a compatible upgrade.

It likes like is in not compatible. See here: http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/ASUS-memory/ASUS+Notebooks/G60J-upgrades.htmlOne way to be sure is to run the system scanner on Crucial's website and it will recommend a compatible RAM stick.

I used it on my netbook 32bit 1gb ram and it worked no problem however be warned the install takes a loooong time. Also I'd suggest getting a 4gb stick while your at it since you cannot have more than 4 gb with this upgrade. the difference for me was day and night

Does any one know if there's really a big difference with the spec difference of this laptop between amazon and newegg? I WANT THIS LAPTOP by at least the beginning of February! If this sweet baby doesn't come in stock by the middle of January I will`buy it from Newegg before they go out of stock too! And what's with their extra 50 bucks anyway?! Come on AMAZON work with me here! WORK WITH ME!

Does anyone know if there is more than one slot? I currently have 2 matching SODIMM's at home, and want to know if this netbook supports 2x1GB, or if there is only 1 slot, and I would have to purchase the 2GB memory SODIMM?
1960395
I added 4Gb SODIMM as offered in this ad It is Crucial RAM As I remember. It has been completely satisfactory. I doubt it is warranted by Lenovo, but continues error-freeing on RAM checks. I doubt that Lenove manufactures or even runs pre-installation checks on their factory- installed RAM.

The laptop has 2 ram slots, i just put in mine 2x4gb crucial memories and works like a charm, before i had only the 4 gb original hynix memory in it. Also you have 2 hdd drive bays which is a rare thing into a laptop especially at this price so you can easily put in a ssd drive to speed up the system. @Lemas I don't know what problems are you experiencing but I had 0 problems with it I used windows 8 and i just upgraded to 8.1 without any problems and i am using it for more than 6 months now and is my main work laptop so it runs almost 24h/day.@Rudy yeah having a big touch pad you can easily move the cursor around so i suggest you use a mouse and shutdown the touch using FN+F7 keys.

Yes it will...but first check how many RAM slots you have in this small "netbook". Larger laptops have 2 slots for 2 RAM sticks. Netbooks, like you have, usually have just one slot...thus you can only have one RAM stick. Again, check this out. In any case, the model you mentioned (netbook) can have a maximum RAM of 2 GB and it would be best to be able to have a total of 2 GB installed total RAM. If you have only one slot total, then you'll need to to get a 2 GB stick to max out the RAM which would give you better performance most likely.

Seems like in the feedback for this screen, we all had the same part number. I do not see this part number on their website. From what I was told is that they work on all netbook Acer One models. You may want to do a search online for your parts. Sorry if this could not help. The store owners would know more about this topic.

Hi Guillermo,I was unable to find an Acer R7-671, do you mean the R7-571? If so, based on the specifications of that laptop this 8GB memory module should work in it.Thank you for choosing Kingston as your upgrade partner!-Jewel, Kingston US Technical Support
